    They actually heavily target Developers with MacBook Pro, they even have a whole conference every year dedicated to developers.

    Also I think fighting with macOS is the problem, there are a few walled off things however it’s not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.

      I don’t mean this in an accusatory way, but did you create your account just to talk up macs? I know some people really love them, but plenty of people have serious issues with Apple’s entire philosophy. The “our way or the highway” idea is great if you want to do everything their way but when that way doesn’t work for what you want to do then that’s what rubs people the wrong way.

        No obviously not, I use Linux as well. I just think it’s bad to say something is awful especially when the given examples for the most part were untrue or easily solved.

        Yeah Apple has a bit of a “this is the only way” however it does make for a very stable system. Also if their way isn’t right for you that’s fine, no reason to complain just don’t use it.

          You can’t always just not use it, a lot of people get given macs as work machines. And having had macos updates break software compatibility multiple times I would not say “a very stable system”!
